Door County, Wisconsin's leader in cherry production, is home to almost 50 orchards. You can pick them (harvest season typically runs from late July into August), eat them in still-warm pies, or take them home in one of the county's many packaged cherry products.
During peak summertime season, Seaquist Orchards Farm Market (north of Sister Bay) sells more than 700 cherry pies a week -- plus cherry pie filling, cherry salsa, cherry vinaigrette dressing and dozens of other cherry creations. (800) 732-8850; seaquistorchards.com
Sweetie Pies, south of Fish Creek, sells tempting cherry, apple-cherry and cherry-rhubarb pies, among other goodies. (877) 868-2744; doorcountypies.com
